The sun had just risen over the land as Lot reached Zoar.

So Abram went up from Egypt into the Negev. He took his wife and all his possessions with him, as well as Lot.

Abram settled in the land of Canaan, but Lot settled among the cities of the Jordan plain and pitched his tents next to Sodom.

The two angels came to Sodom in the evening while Lot was sitting in the city’s gateway. When Lot saw them, he got up to meet them and bowed down with his face toward the ground.
